my default system LANG is 'en_US.UTF-8'.
Also, I have tried to edit this filter with  'vi "+set encoding=utf-8" 
sievefilter' , and
the folder name it's correctly writed/displayed, but when it's executed 
from dovecot lmtp
give me this error.

I'm using dovecot with default mUTF-7 encoding, and in the pigeonhole 
configuration I didn't
see nothing related to encoding charset .
Could I configure dovecot to work with UTF-8 instead mUTF-7? this could 
help to resolve this
problem? Nowadays  It's recommended to use UTF-8 for non-english 
configurations?

thanks

Xavier
